I'm sitting here in our rv for probably the last time this season. It's getting cool out, maybe around 12C-54F outside. The DW is not comfortable inside unless we have the temp at about 20-21C, or 70-72F. So naturally we have to run the propane furnace more regularly to keep things warm. I do turn it down to around 16C or 64F for overnight. Curious what everyone else is doing during the day and night. Cheers.

Same here, we have a electric heater we use to maintain the temp, propane just for the initial heat up

68 daytime and 33 at night... the Ice Queen likes it cool.

For us 74 or so during the day and 68 at night.

76 day/night in summer (but fans on) and 65ish in winter.

60+ during the day and 50 at night for cool weather. In summer with AC, it is 73 day and 71 night with fan running. In campgrounds during cooler weather, we use an electric heater to save propane and dry camping, we use a Mr Buddy until bedtime.

I have a bit of arthritis in my arms so now I keep the thermostat at 23C (~74F) during the day, 21C (~70F) at night which I find kind of humorous because when I used to go home for visits I grumbled to myself they keep the house too warm.

NOW I'VE TURNED IN TO THEM!

68 day, 62 night. We use the 'fireplace' or a 1500 watt electric heater to maintain the LR comfort after warming it up with the propane guzzler. The BR gets some added heat from the heay stip in the a/c but that ain't much.

30 last night and heat was on 60. Day time Usually at 72. Thermostat is off 2 degrees. That said, real temp day, 70 and 58 at night. Summer 74 day and 66 at night.

we set our trailer for 77* daytime so it wont cycle very often and dont use heat at night. we carry a small electric heater for cold weather to save fuel and because the furnace in ours blows too hot. small electric heater with osc. fan keeps trailer warm in as cold a weather as we would go camping in. at home we set heat on 68* in the winter and a/c on 77* in the summer.

In the cooler season (Oct / Nov in NE. Ohio) we keep a small ceramic heater going during the day. And at night I'll keep that heater on low, but set our Timer Ridge's thermostat at 55-ish, just in case the ceramic can't keep up. But with how well insulated the ORV units are very rarely does the furnace kick in. Then who ever gets up early, moves the thermostat up to 65 to get the whole RV heated up.

I love the shoulder season camping. Night time lows in the 20's and 30's are what the ORV's products are made for....Bring it on...
